Question

I have scoured the TWiki Docs and tried to find other answers on the Internet to this question/issue and have failed. I am creating a table of URLs. Similar to this:

Description URL/Comment
Here is example 1 of a Long URL http://something.somewhere.com/files/moon/and/stars/this/is/really/long/now/but/onthe/productionsite/it/does/contain/actualdata/graph1/text/file/graph/lalalal/urlstillcontinues/almost/done/now/herewego.htm

I am using TWiki code for this table although I have also tried straight HTML and have gotten the same result. My issue is that since the URL/content of the cell has no spaces, it will not wrap within the cell and still be a usable hyperlink. I have tried using HTML's table tags for the table and gotten the same results (no wrapping). Is this do-able?

Answer

Wrap a Long URL by using [Square bracket rules]. Might not be what you want since you must put spaces in the display-only text, but at least the link works. http:// something.somewhere.com/files/moon/and/stars/ this/is/really/long/now/but/onthe/productionsite/ it/does/contain/actualdata/graph1/text/file/graph/ lalalal/urlstillcontinues/almost/done/now/herewego.htm
